I wanted a secluded romantic place for myself and my American sweetheart. I had been told how beautiful and comfortable these villas were. Well our expectations were well surpassed!! This 2 bedroom villa offered all the modern amenities, such as a beautiful kitchen, a laundry room, a jaccuzzi and air-conditioning in the lovely bedrooms, all the while respecting local authenticity structure and furniture wise. The view from the deck and the master bedroom,over the crystal clear lagoon and the surrounding lush mountains, as we dined under the stars was spectacular. On arrival , we were greeted by the French landlady who had decorated the living room and the bedrooms with beautiful tropical flowers and filled the fridge and cupboard with first necessaties like coffee, tea, water, sugar, soap, shampoo, washing powder etc.. as well as some delicious grapefruit marmelade she had made herself. Very discreet, she nonetheless called to see if we needed anything during our stay, which we actually extended to 2 weeks, feeling so happy there. Just around the corner, was a small shopping center with pizzeria, pharmacy, and the Tipanier restaurant which served delicious French and local specialities at moderate prices. Walking distance from the villa, down the hill, is the superb Intercontinental resort where we enjoyed great meals and 'happy hour' exotic cocktails after lazy times at the beach, swimming in limpid lagoon waters. I have travelled all over the world, and I must say this was one of the most romantic, peaceful and restful places I have ever stayed. My sweetheart is back on the East Coast now, his camera full of pictures and his head full of wonderful memories. If all goes well, we would like to stay there again at Christmas time. Just loved it!
